SAMUEL MOORE, an, or WILMINGTON, DELAWARE.

SHAVING BRUSH.

Application filed July 8 1824, Serial No. 724.825. Renewed December 15, 1925;

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SAMUEL MOORE, J r., a citizen of the United States, residing at \Vilmington, in the county of New Castle and State of Delaware, have invented new and useful Improvements in Shavmg Brushes, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a shaving brush, 10 the general object of .the invention being to provide means whereby the brush can be attached to a tube of shaving cream so that the tube will act as a handle and with means whereby some of the cream in the tube can be ejected into the bristles of the brush.

Another object of the invention 1s to provide means whereby the cream being forced into the bristles can be seen.

This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying draw ngs and specifically pointed out in the appended claim. 1

In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is a sectional view through th brush head showing the same attached to a tube.

Figure 2 is an elevation showing the device on a tube.

Figure 3 is a section on line 3-3 of Figure 2.

In these views, 1 indicates a brush head which is provided with an annular flange 2 0 to support the bristles 3. Said head, in its outer end, is provided with a tapered recess 4 for receiving the sloping end of a collapsible tube A which contains shaving forced into the bristles cream or the like. The head is also provided with a threaded bore 5 for receiving the 46 threaded nipple a of the tube and with a hole 5 which permits the cream to pass from the mouth of the tube A into the bristles. The flange 2 is provided with a slot 6 and the bristles are so placed in the head that 50 an elongated opening 7 is left which registers with the slot 6 so that the cream being can be seen through the openings Gand 7. Thus the desired amount of cream can be pressed from the tube. As will be seen the tube acts asa' handle for the brush and when a person wishes to shave it is simply necessary to squeeze the tube slightly to force the de-- sired amount of cream into the bristles 01 the brush and then use the brush in' the regular manner. The engagement. of the brush head on the threaded nipple of the tube and the engagement between the re cessed part of the head and the sloping shoulders at the end of the tube willfirmly connect the brush head with the tube.

It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent. i

I desire it to be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.

What I claim is A device of the class described comprising a brush head having a hole passing through the same and a slot in one side which communicates' with the hole, said slot extending into the bristle part, the under portion of the hole being threadedto receive the threaded nipple of a cream tube.

In testimony whereof I atfix my signature.

SAMUEL MOORE, J R.
